I Hate You Daddy!!!

Daddy left and messed my life up, killing all my memories.
He hates me and I tried so hard to be a good girl.
He left me in despair, He dug a hole and put me in it, filled it with quicksand.
Hold on a minute...He made me die, on the inside.
I was willing to forgive him and yet he dismissed it.
I want to scream and cry like a wailing kitten lost and hungry without a parent.
People ask why I cut and I say I cut so that I may feel.
Theres a big gaping hole inside of me, the edges burn, right through me.
Daddy left when i was still in the womb.
Daddy is here somewhere, still killing me...

I can relate to this one. I feel the anger. I had a dad at home daily and he still was not there so I feel you definitely. I often sometimes wished that he was not there at all. I feel like I would have been better off.It is hard to forgive but please keep trying:I am. You are special and it is his loss. That is the way I see it with my dad. I'll be praying for you and pray meditate or whatever for me.
